Mississippi ‘Clean Coal’ Project Flops

A once-promising clean coal plant in Mississippi is set to switch to natural gas instead.

The facility, run by utility provider Southern Company, is over budget and behind schedule, and has failed to achieve its goal of producing electricity from coal with significantly reduced carbon emissions. A review by the Mississippi Public Service Commission gave the plant until July 6 to begin planning its future and recommended a switch to natural gas, reports the New York Times.
